Unit 6On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted - for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things - some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.在这一天，我们来到这里将结束悲戚和错误的承诺，抛弃指责和陈旧的教条，这些已经太久扼杀我们的政治。我们仍是一个年轻的国家，但借用圣经的话，时间已经到了抛弃幼稚的事情。时间已到，重申我们不朽的精神；选择我们更好的历史；推进了珍贵的礼物，这一崇高的理念，通过一代又一代：赋予所有人平等的上帝，人人自由，人人都有机会去追求自己的幸福。We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things.

When we visit places in other centuries, we gain a better understanding of the people living there. We learn their cultures, history and background. We discover the similarities they have with us, as well as their differences from us. It is interesting to learn from people with diverse background. Travelling helps to enrich our lives. It increases our knowledge and widens our perspective. When we visit interesting places, we discover and learn many things. We discover new people, surroundings, plants and animals. If we want to make our travels more exciting and challenging, we can choose to plan our own tour and select the specific place, we want to visit. Traveling not only provides us fun and adventure, it also provides us marvelous insights and enlightens our minds. Traveling provides opportunities for us to share our happiness with our friends and family. When we travel with our friends and family, we create memories that would last a lifetime. It is indeed a joyful thing to share the experience of a special trip with those we love. Giving them a wonderful traveling experience far outweighs the benefit of buying present for them. Goods have a limited life span whereas memories last forever.Unit2 Under what conditions do commercial sports emerge and prosper? The existence of commercial sports depends on revenues generated from a combination of gate receipts and sale of broadcasting rights to radio and television. This means that they grow and prosper best under certain social and economic conditions. First, they grow best in market economies where material rewards are given high priority in the lives of people connected with sports, including athletes and those who own teams or sponsor and promote events. Second, because they require large concentrations of potential spectators commercial sports tend to exist in societies with large, densely populated cities. Although it would be possible to maintain simple forms of commercial sports in rural societies, it would be hard to support financially fulltime professional athletes. Third, commercial sports rely on the availability of large amounts of capital to build and sta
